End Of Season

April 7, 2009

This past weekend, I hit up another Bench warehouse sale. It wasn't really that spectacular, but we managed to grab and armload of things we thought we might want. What I ended up purchasing was two winter jackets. Yeah, at that point, I wasn't really sure if it was a smart buy, seeing as how the weather was getting warm and winter was pretty much over. But, those experts always tell you to buy at the end of the season for next year! So that's what I ended up doing.

In the car, I quickly called Andrew to inform him of my latest purchase (y'know, to prepare him for when I came home with a huge paper bag). After hearing me out, he asked, "What? Are you expecting the weather to get really cold any time soon?" Seeing as how the weather was really warm up until the weekend, I didn't really have an answer. But now? Now I do.

Yes, Andrew, I was expecting the weather to get real cold. And I'm so glad I had my nice, new, warm jacket on me today when I was assigned to take a walk to the park with one girl I work with... in the snow.
